Last update: 11 May 2016
How to unlock: Talk to Meliha in the Fishermen's Village (Fishermen's Village on the map).
Difficulty level: medium
Reward: 5000 experience, 1000 dollars
When in the Fishermen's Village, find two women banging on the door of one of the huts and talk to Meliha. Use lockpicks to open the door (the lock is of medium difficulty), check all the rooms and tell the woman that you didn't find anybody. Ask any person from the village where to find Harun and you will learn that he stays under a broken bridge (number 13a on the map). Jump into the water, swim to the platform built around a large pillar and talk to Harun. You can now go back to the village. Go inside the hut where Yasmina is and talk to her to learn where her mother is.
Head south-west from the village and search the area marked by the game to find the building in which Jamil is (number 13b on the map). You will recognize it by the red paint. You can enter it from the street or from one of the balconies. Start from searching all the floors and killing all the zombies. Secure all the doors to the building by moving two wardrobes. At the end, interact with the third wardrobe in which a boy is sitting and talk to him.
Now you have to reach Salim's house, which is located in the south-eastern part of the map (number 13c on the map). When you're there, knock on the door and after the conversation, prepare to defend yourself against the infected lured by the sound of alarm (you can't switch it off now). You will be fighting Runners, so you have to be careful, especially when there are 2-3 zombies around of this type around you. Try getting onto the roof of the building (look for an opportunity to push the monsters down) and use Molotov Cocktails and throwing weapons/firearms. You have to fight until all the zombies marked on the map are eliminated (ignore the monsters standing farther away).
It's not the end, because now you have do defeat Salim. The man wants to fight you in melee combat, so try to use ranged attacks. You can use Molotov Cocktails or mines. After killing Salim, search his body and take the key. You can enter the building. Search the wardrobe and locate a hidden hatch, leading to the basement. Go down and rescue Aida. You can now go back to Fishermen's Village and take the reward from Meliha (1000 dollars).
